The town of Bedlam was born of rioters, revolt, pain, and murder. Over a hundred years later, nothing has changed. A shadow clings to our lives. Stalking, watching, waiting, taunting, and killing. And when it struck, I wasn't ready. I have to play their game now. Catch them, kill them, before Ruckus Royale or they'll claim another sacrifice. The trouble is a new band of outlaws are in charge, and Arsenio, Cairo, Jacques, Legend, and Roan don't take well to people ruining their fun.

It’s a common story. I’m sure you can guess how it goes. Girl winds up in the wrong place at the wrong time. She witnesses four gods of beauty and brutality murder some poor sap, and she’s stupid enough to get caught.

My sister was good, kind, loving, and the Royals of Regalia bullied her 'til she killed herself. I set foot on campus ready to right some wrongs when the most handsome bunch of stone-cold weirdos asked if I needed a little help. These four are as determined to make up for not protecting my sister as they are to protect…and keep…me. They’re freaks. Weirdos. Psychos. But damned if they’re not taking my heart like they do everything else—without mercy or permission. It’s the five of us against the most untouchable of Regalia. No one thinks we can win, but I like my chances.

It wasn't supposed to be like this. Evergreen Academy was meant to be my fresh start. My hair was on point. My skin was flawless. And now, I wore the hell out of my clothes instead of hiding them. Even running into Ryder hadn't thrown me. So what if the silver-eyed devil who tormented me for years now ruled my new school with a band of boys everyone called the Knights. The four of them were devastatingly rich, enviously handsome...and heartbreakingly cruel.

It’s a new semester at Regalia University, and by the end of it, five men will die. My sister was good, kind, loving, and the Royals of Regalia bullied her till she killed herself. I set foot on campus ready to right some wrongs when the most handsome bunch of stone-cold weirdos asked if I needed a little help…Don’t get me started on Lucien. He fancies himself a vampire—complete with sharpened canines, cape, and a coffin, but if anyone knows how to make a man bleed, it’s him.

Drugs flooding campus. Tensions brewing between the factions. Old enemies reappearing. New secrets taking over my life. Love awakening a soul I long thought was dead. Cassius, Clay, Hiro, and Royal have named me one of them, but sharing a title is easy. Can we share all that comes with it? I’ll be tested in ways I’m not prepared for — by enemies and loves alike. There’s more going on with the academy, the Horsemen, and my parent’s disappearance than I knew. What I do know is following that path will be dangerous.

My parents forgot something when they ran…me. After scamming most of our town out of their life savings, my folks disappeared in the middle of the night. Forced to take me in, my estranged aunt and uncle shipped me off to Raven River Academy the first chance they got. In my town, the line between the haves and the have-nots is actually a 12-foot gate that keeps the unwanted where they belong. Nothing could unite the two factions until I set foot on campus. For the first time in our history, they all agree on one thing: I must pay for my father’s sins.

It doesn’t feel like the end. It feels like all of my problems are just beginning. There’s more happening in my town of Raven River than I knew. More lies. More secrets. More pain. Enemies seen and unseen are circling, and not even my guardian angels can protect me. There’s a war coming, and I’ll fight because this time my Angels...my Horsemen...my loves...are the ones who need saving.

Princess Emiana is beauty and grace itself. Raised in refinement, nursed in tradition, and fashioned into the perfect bride for the shadowed fae King of Wind and Wild. Too bad that b*tch ain't me. I’m the poor, lowly, magicless wretch whose desperate sacrifice to save my sister's life resulted in me being captured, cursed, and forced to marry in the princess's place. Now the king has me in his hold. There's only one way to break the curse, and return to the siblings and dying mother who need me. Make the cruel, heartless, devastatingly handsome king truly give his love and heart to me. ...

Evergreen Academy was supposed to be my fresh start…and Somerset University my second chance. All I wanted was normal. Normal classes. Normal professors. Normal sorority. I wanted the Somerset Sallys to be like every other Greek house. I wanted the pretty, fun, sweet sisters to be genuine. I wanted the smile of their enigmatic leader not to conceal a secret. And I wanted the story they told me to be true. I should have known that was too much to ask.

I was the chosen one. Born with the rarest power. The fated mate of the most powerful, strongest, and handsome men in our pack. I was going to change the world, and bring the Wolf Nation to great heights. Until I murdered my mate during the bonding ceremony and took off.

It’s a common story. I’m sure you can guess how it goes. Girl winds up in the wrong place at the wrong time. She witnesses four gods of beauty and brutality murder some poor sap, and she’s stupid enough to get caught. Come on. You know what happens next. You know they tracked her...me...down.

There’s more behind my sister’s death than I knew. Secrets she was determined I never learn, and she’s not the only one. Someone is watching. They’re waiting for me to make my move, and bring me down for good. But how is a girl supposed to find one bad royal in a group of spoiled, twisted rich brats that spread bad on their strawberry crepes every morning for breakfast? I don’t know, but I definitely don’t do it by getting distracted by my hot professor who can’t stay away. Or the infuriating fiancé who keeps making me smile in between pissing me off.

I was born in Cinco City. I suffered in Cinco City. I fought, scraped, cried, and bled in Cinco City, and all the time, I did it alone. Not this time. With Sunny, Liam, River, and Bane on my side, it's the Brotherhood who'll know what it is to have everything they wanted in the palm of their hands until it's all ripped away. Stand aside, Cinco. There's a new queen ruling this city, and with my Savage Princes by my side, I'm unstoppable.

They ripped me from my safe, perfect world and bound me in chains. Now it's Cash's turn. The cold, hard, analytical leader has a problem he needs me to solve, and he's not asking. I’ve got problems of my own, too. I’m falling for a man who refuses to love me, on top of fending off a threat determined to destroy me. Like I don’t have enough of that going on already. As the search for Kieran ramps up, a few new players enter the scene. My boys will have me on the front lines. And Cash will have me bare, stripped, and vulnerable to his mercy.

I thought my biggest problem was being kicked off campus, but I'd rather trade my blazer for a skirt than an orange jumpsuit. There's a killer on campus, and they think it's me. I have my boys on my side, but this might be one fight we can't win. Someone is determined to bring us down, but with enemies on all sides, the suspects are endless, and I'm running out of time. I'm not the only one who came to Breakbattle with a plan.
